Early mastery is key in Star Wars Zero Company, a turn-based tactics game from Bit Reactor. Four crucial tactics to learn and implement from the start include Overwatch, calling for backup, Advantage resource, and bonding. Overwatch is a powerful tool that lets you shoot at enemies moving or taking actions in a cone-shaped area on the battlefield.
